2 NFL players, 2 teams. 2 public events. 1 NFL. 1 Christ, 2 sides.

The views expressed by Kaepernick (Lib) and Butkers (OrangeCult) have not been well received by many people on both sides of the aisle who feel entertainers should "shut up and do what we pay to see them do."

However, both received a lot of support from one side of the sociopolitical aisle or the other side. And...both received a lot of flack from one side or the other too.

" A petition created by Faithful America on Friday is condemning Harrison Butker #7 of the Kansas City Chiefs for his controversial <sexist/antiLGBTQ> commencement speech, as they call for him to apologize. "

Kaepernick lost his job with the 49ers. Will the Chiefs/NFL owners give kicker Butkers the boot as well?

NFL says, ""Harrison Butker gave a <sexist/anti-LGBT> speech in his personal capacity. His views are not those of the NFL as an organization. The NFL is steadfast in our commitment to inclusion, which only makes our league stronger,"

His personal capacity?? Nobody would know or care who Butkers is, nor would he be giving a commencement speech, were it not for his celebrity as kicker on the team that fields Taylor Swift's boyfriend. Nobody.

On the AR-15 side of the Catholic aisle, "CatholicVote, a nonprofit advocacy group, has since supported Butker as the group sent a letter to NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell and Chiefs CEO Clark Hunt, condemning the league's statement, writing that the "ideals" Butker referred to in his speech are not controversial and remain "sacred for millions of religious believers."

Of course not, Burkers was 35 for 37 in kicking field goals. If Kaepernick had that kind of percentage he probably could have stayed around too. Sports trumps morals, almost always. Successful sports always does.

Yesterdays' religions have become demure and weak - no different than what happened to the Romans - decide how that worked out.


BUt - Islam - it's good to see they don't take your stuff too well.

I have full faith they'll deal with it. Sometimes in entertaining fashion.

Oui?

The difference between Butkers and Kaepernick is that Butkers doesn’t suck at his job.

Can you say Trevor Bauer?
2x Cy Young winner, LA Dodgers pitcher, currently 1.50ERA in his first five starts, striking out 14.1 batters per nine innings; he got set up for extortion by a gal who was into rough sex. Nothing illegal, it was consensual all the way around.

Fans on MLB websites are clamoring for him to be rehired, but the LADs and MLB don't want that kind of image on the mound. So it's Japan or Mexico if he wants to play the game.

So a little Kansas bigotry is okay, but rough sex... nuh uh.... unless you're spraytanned orange and lie as easily as you breath.... in which case you can be the leader of the GOP.

That isn't true. Besides, how would you know how to rate Kaepernick as a QB? You thought Tim Tebow was a good QB.
